When You Turn A 19th Century Museum Into An Office

We are Thinslices, a family of elephants who build technology products and develop mobile apps for startups. Since we are extremely privileged to come to work every day and write apps in a building that used to house the Theatre’s Museum, we thought of inviting you to celebrate our 5th year anniversary by taking a tour of this incredible elephants’ office.

The building dates back to 1830 and is loaded with history; for many years, it served as a meeting place for poets. Although it’s now the office of an iOS software development company, we haven’t made much changes to its original structure so as to keep the spirit of this amazing building alive.

Furthermore, the museum provides management inspiration.
"The assistant curator of the museum came to the head curator with a couple of problems.
"Sir, the mummy is damp and getting mouldy. And the white mouse in the maze exhibit has developed dry skin."
The head curator thought for a minute, then advised, "I know! Why not put your mummy where your mouse is?""
